tv   Chris Jansing Reports  MSNBC  March 19, 2024 10:00am-11:00am PDT

10:00 am
nobody understands what is happening in america right now. we used to be very clear about supporting democracies around the world. >> evelyn farkas, thank you so much from ukraine. safe travels and talk to you as soon as you get back. thank you so much. that does it for this edition of "andrea mitchell reports." remember, follow us on social media at mitchell reports and rewatch highlights from the show anytime on youtube. go to msnbc.com/andrea. "chris jansing reports" with yasmin vossoughian starts right now. hi, everybody. good to see you. i'm yasmin vossoughian in for chris jansing live here at msnbc headquarters in new york city. toxic, hateful and false. that is how some are describing donald trump's latest rant about jewish americans who vote for democrats in an election where every vote counts. how could that possibly help trump win? plus, never before has an
10:01 am
entire population been classified as being in danger of starvation by a u.n.-backed report until now. the almost unbelievable catastrophe in gaza that keeps getting worse as secretary of state tony blinken heads back to the region for a sixth time. i'll speak to a doctor who has been on the ground trying to help, to speak to the u.n., but he's going to talk to us first. and a lawsuit blaming social media companies for radicalizing a mass shooter in new york is allowed to move forward. what it could mean for sites like youtube and meta and questions about who bears responsibility for the hate that finds a home online. all right, want to start today with those all important primaries, happening in five states, voters drawing the battle lines where this false fight over congressional control and yet today, some of those same voters, jewish voters specifically, they're being attacked by former president donald trump. in a new interview posted on monday, trump bashed jewish americans who vote for democrats arguing essentially that you
10:02 am
can't be pro-democrat and pro israel at the same time. take a listen. >> why do the democrats hate bibi netanyahu? >> i actually think they hate israel. >> yes. >> i don't think they hate him. i think they hate israel. when you see the palestinian marches, even i -- i'm amazed how many people are in those marches. and guys like schumer see that and to him it is votes. i think it is votes more than anything else because he was always pro-israel. he's very anti-israel now. any jewish person that votes for democrats hates their religion, they hate everything about israel, and they should be ashamed of themselves. >> so understandably that drew an immediate response from all over the ceo of the anti-defamation league insisting that, quote, accusing jews of hating their religion because they might vote for a particular party is defamatory and patently false. chuck schumer said making israel
10:03 am
a partisan issue only hurts israel and the u.s.-israeli relationship. i want to bring in garrett haake, jesse kirsch in ontario, ohio, and steve kornacki at the big board and stewart stevens with the lincoln project. welcome to you all, guys. garrett, start us off. this is not the first time we heard something like this from donald trump, and by the way, they're doubling down. >> that's right. the former president flirted with this kind of language before, but i think he went farther overnight than he has in previous comments. his campaign is in fact doubling down on at least part of his remarks. a statement from the campaign spokesperson i received from them this morning reads in part, president trump is right, the democrat party has turned into a full blown anti-israel, antisemitic pro terrorist cabal. nothing in there backing away from these comments, though i will note they're strictly focused on the democratic party,
10:04 am
not on jewish american voters who may support that party. so, perhaps we're seeing what amounts to some cleanup there from the trump campaign. this is not an issue likely to go away. statements have been released about it. i suspect as members of congress fly back to washington this afternoon, they'll be confronted with questions about whether they agree with and support the former president's inflammatory remarks about another group of americans. >> garrett haake, get back to it, my friend. thank you for joining us on that. stewart, talk to me. donald trump has not necessarily fared well in these elections when it comes to jewish voters. you look back at 2016, 30%, 2020, 27%. is this purely a kind of political attempt to gain more votes from jewish american voters, and, in fact, it is, it doesn't seem like it is going to work. >> when trump does crazy things, there is always a need to present it as if it was part some of great strategy, otherwise you come to the
10:05 am
conclusion he's a crazy guy out there saying whatever bounces around in his head like a pinball machine gone crazy. i think what is really interesting here is to look at this repeated pattern of donald trump, trying to incite people, americans against each other based upon their religion. which is so fundamentally antiamerican. it is against everything that america is about. so here is a guy who ran on a muslim ban, now he's attacking jews, he's tried to use his christian nationalism as a rallying cry to attack the government of the united states. this is extraordinarily divisive and goes against what is traditionally been the role of a president, which is to try to bring people together. and whether or not you like president biden or not, i do like him, he is in that tradition. he will say, i represent all americans. whether or not you voted for me or not. and that is really the difference here, with trump. he doesn't try to. if you're not for him, he
10:06 am
doesn't -- he thinks you're a bad person, he thinks you're evil, he doesn't think you're patriotic, he doesn't think you're american. if you're for him, he'll support you. >> what does this is a about how donald trump, if winning re-election in november is to deal with the crisis in the middle east. u.s.-israeli relations at an all time low. donald trump is good friends, close contacts with bibi netanyahu. we know netanyahu had a phone call with president biden yesterday. netanyahu is not popular in israel. what does this is a about how he would deal with this crisis? >> i think that netanyahu is playing a really unprecedented and improper role in american politics previously. it doesn't help israel. i think most israelis know this. i think a lot of jewish americans and americans who just care about israel know this. it is part of this pattern with trump. he tries to escalate everything.
10:07 am
there is never any calming down with trump, which is just very, very dangerous in any kind of international situation. when you're trying to get people to step back, try to come to some conclusion, he just will throw gas on it. that's his instinct. it is in everything. and it is incredibly antipresidential, nonpresidential, by the traditional role of the president, and it is very dangerous for america and really the world. >> steve kornacki, primary day once again, in this country. this is just one of the things, some of what we were talking about that voters were taking into account today as they head to the polls. what's at stake? >> i think the marquee race, in ohio, you have a donald trump-backed candidate here, trump was just there in ohio the other day trying to get the vote out for him. it looks like his main threat moreno is matt doleman, a state senator, a prominent family in
10:08 am
the cleveland area, they own the cleveland guardians baseball team. doleman ran for the senate two years ago, he then to a different trump-backed candidate, j.d. vance, who won a senate seat. you have frank larose running, surprised if he pulled this out, but he is there as well. the significance of this race in terms of the big picture, in terms of the battle for senate control is this. let's look at the states that are up this year. senate seats up this year. blue are democratic seats, red are republican seats. right now the senate is 51 for the democrats and 49 for the republicans. here is the first major challenge democrats have. they can't even talk about retaining control of the senate unless they can solve this puzzle. there are three states with democratic-held senate seats that voted for trump in 2020 and likely to vote for him in 2024.
10:09 am
west virginia, ohio, the state we're talking about here and montana. democrats, if they lose two, you do the math, 51 falls to 49. right away, they got no chance of holding on to the united states senate. so they have got to win two of these three. and the reality is they have given up on west virginia already. trump won that state by more than 40 points, joe manchin is retiring. manchin may have calculated he couldn't hold on in west virginia anymore. that leads ohio and montana. ohio, trump carried twice by eight points, sherrod brown the democrat is awaiting the winner of this primary tonight. democrats seem to believe that moreno is the more beatable candidate for sherrod brown. democrats spent money trying to boost moreno in this primary. if trump does win ohio, he's expected to, sherrod brown will need to win a chunk of voters who are voting for donald trump and the presidential election. he's going to need trump voters to come over and vote for him in the senate race and jon tester in montana, a state won trump
10:10 am
won by 16 points, is going it need the same, likely even more. more trump voters to split their ballots to come over to the democratic side and vote for tester in the senate race there. if democrats can retain these two seats, that would give them a chance of holding on to the senate. there are a number of other states that are up there, republicans are eyeing, democrats are hoping somehow to put texas in play. but essentially the most likely scenario here for democrats to hold the senate requires them to win both montana and to win ohio. tonight they'll find out who sherrod brown faces in ohio. >> steve, thank you. jesse, take us to ohio, as steve started us off there, what are you hearing from voters on the ground there and are they at all kind of reacting to this rhetoric that we were talking about a little bit earlier? >> yes, yasmin, we're in a polling location in ontario, ohio. people are voting right here. i'll step over here for a second, step outside to talk about the issues, i'm going to grab one of these. we have the stickers and you get
10:11 am
to have a little fun with the pun here, i voted in ohio. we'll step outside, because we have to be outside to talk about issues and get into the specifics of candidates in a state like ohio. here is what we're talking about here. two different wings of the party, and steve alluded to the fact that state senator matt dolan ran in '22, bernie moreno was involved with that. but 9 the lines seem to be drawn more vividly this time. the state's governor has endorsed matt dolan. mike dewine is the governor here. and then you had on the other side, you have bernie moreno campaigning with the former president over the weekend, cary lake has been here, kristi noem has been here, a whole bunch of big national maga centric figures who have been on the trail with bernie moreno up against the state senator who is trying to pitch himself as the person who is aligned with the former president on policy, but
10:12 am
takes a different approach stylistically. we caught up with both candidates yesterday. here's what they shared. >> i have fought and gotten results. because if you're not getting results, you're just shouting and we had too much shouting in our country. >> what makes you the most electable for the fall? >> i'm the perfect contrast to sherrod brown. how do you beat a career politician who votes extraordinarily to the left of ohio? vote the opposite. >> reporter: the state secretary of state frank larose is also in this race. if you turn on a television here, you would think it is just a race between moreno and dolan at this point. you talk about what voters are talking about, our team heard from people, big issue for several voters has been immigration, that is something that is being talked aabout across the country. here is something else that whoever wins tonight is going to have to figure out, how to bring together the party more broadly because our team heard from
10:13 am
people both interested in dolan and interested in moreno who are at least contemplating not voting for the republican nominee if it is not their first choice. in other words, people are going to cast a ballot today, potentially, and if that person is not the nominee, they may sit out the senate race in the fall regardless of who they're voting for, for president. that is something that kind of, you know, split in the party, that's something that whoever wins tonight has to try to mesh back together and piece back together if they're going to have a successful campaign in the fall against sherrod brown. >> jesse kirsch, i'll let you get back to it. bring the party together more broadly, that's pretty interesting when it comes to republicans, especially out of ohio. we can couple that with what we have been hearing from dolan of not getting the donald trump endorsement and not backing donald trump's personality traits per se, but backing his policies.
10:14 am
a lot of republicans will be watching this race to see how it turns out. if it works, i want to play for you what we heard from dolan and then we'll talk. >> i'm supporting president trump to be our nominee, but because i support trump republican policies. look, his personality, not me. his political style, not me. but his policies that make your life better, that make america stronger, will make ohio stronger, that is me. >> so, if the goal is to unify the party, you wonder, okay, is this the way to do it? but then you have dems really wanting to go up against moreno, sherrod brown has a better chance up against moreno if they want to maintain control of the senate. >> i worked a lot in ohio. i worked for what would be the establishment part of ohio now, for governor kasich, back when he was a congressman. i think what matt dolan is going through is sad and pathetic. he's talking about his stylistic
10:15 am
differences with someone who tried to overthrow the government of the united states. i mean, look, very seldom has it been said he lacks a spine of anybody in the world they lack the courage of mike pence. but really, that's what is happening here. and it just shows the impossible position that the republican party has placed itself in. donald trump is evil. he is antiamerican. he's a hater. if the republican party stands for anything, it has to stand against that. and the party has just collapsed as a moral force. i know these people in ohio. they hate donald trump, people like matt dolan and others and the establishment. they wouldn't have donald trump in their home, their spouses wouldn't allow them and they still want to pose him. i think it is sad and compromising. >> they feel like they can't win? >> yes. but you can't win if you don't fight. who is it better to be when you're going to lose a race, liz
10:16 am
cheney or matt dolan. at least have some integrity, stand for something. the best fights in life you don't get in because you now ear going to win, you get in because you know you have to fight. it is just a lack of conviction and courage and principles. >> stewart stevens, thank you. in 60 seconds, a u.n.-backed report says northern gaza famine is now quote, unquote imminent. where aid efforts stand and we'll speak with a doctor who returned from a medical mission in gaza. don't miss that conversation. m in gaza. don't miss that conversation (♪♪) we come from a long line of cowboys.

10:18 am
will travel to the middle east tomorrow, his sixth trip to the region since the war broke out. speaking to reporters in manila today, blinken laid out the dire and historic stakes. >> according to the most respected measure of these things, 100% of the population in gaza is at severe levels of acute food insecurity. that's the first time an entire population has been so classified. >> nbc correspondent matt bradley is joining us now. while this is happening, you have israel confirming it is going to send this delegation to washington at the ask of president biden and their call with bibi netanyahu yesterday to discuss really the plan to invade rafah. which is really opened a rift between the two allies. what can you tell us about the diplomacy that is happening right now? >> it is two parallel diplomatic tracks that are happening right
10:19 am
now. you were just mentioning the negotiations in washington. israel confirmed that it will send a delegation to washington to discuss alternatives to a ground invasion of rafah, that city in gaza's southern most edge, well over a million palestinians are thought to have taken refuge. they were told to go there for safety by the israelis. that delegation from the israelis, it does show that they're interested on some level in hearing out american concerns about a ground incursion into rafah, which aid agencies and advocacy groups have learned can lead to a humanitarian catastrophe. the president of that delegation in washington, it also does seem to kind of moderate what we heard from israeli prime minister netanyahu just today. he acknowledged the rift, which is growing, between the american administration and israel over rafah as well as a number of different issues, but he vowed to press ahead with his incursion into that city. and now on that other bit of diplomacy, negotiations to free more than 100 people still held
10:20 am
in the gaza strip, talks are ongoing even after israel's intelligence chief left just today. we have seen stop and start talks before. these two parallel diplomatic tracks, they're related, because these hostage negotiations are still the last best hope that all the parties have for delaying or maybe preventing what could become a very bloody invasion of rafah. >> matt bradley, thank you. appreciate it. i want to bring in someone who witnessed the grave situation in gaza up close, dr. ahmad, assistant program director for global health outside chicago. he spent three weeks in gaza back in january as part of a medical mission with a humanitarian ngo and is in new york for immediate meetings at nations. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> tell me what you saw. >> the situation in the gaza strip is catastrophic. we saw it firsthand.
10:21 am
i had been to the gaza strip four previous times. met global, they have been to ukraine, syria, egypt, sudan. this is the worst humanitarian crisis we have ever seen. it is not just the fact there are bombs dropping, tanks shelling different buildings and people are on the run. it is that nothing can get in. food cannot get in for the hngry. medicine cannot get in to treat the patients and then systematically one by one we have seen the hospitals become defunct and inoperable. the hospital i was at in january, ultimately was under siege, raided and now not functioning anymore. that was the second largest hospital. so this is a really tough situation and every way you look at it in the gaza strip, life has been totally disrupted and damaged. >> what were you hearing from the people inside the hospital, what were you seeing of people inside the hospital? >> it was so tragic. every single day, because there was such a major military offensive in khan younis at the time, we were getting hundreds of trauma patients. also while you're walking,
10:22 am
you're bumping into somebody who has been displaced from somewhere. 10,000 people were sheltering in and around the hospital. i remember walking through the pediatric division and seeing kids playing ring around the rosy while going to treat people whose legs had been blown off by bombs or someone who is infected from a wound they suffered a month ago. that is something i struggled with and something that every single ngo has been talking about. these hospitals are overwhelmed. the staff is overworked and not being paid. and this entire time they're still under the constant threat of attack. >> when you think about the children and the women that have lost their lives and the thousands now and you think about this possible incursion into rafah, what worries you most, especially when it comes to the resources that the medical community has? >> it cannot happen. an invasion into rafah, an offensive into rafah cannot happen. it would be a bloodbath. it would be a total massacre. we talked about 13,000 children who have been killed thus far.
10:23 am
that number would book astronomically higher than it already is. 1 in 100 children have been killed in the gaza strip since this started. people in rafah are living on top of each other. there is no other space to go. people should remember, rafah has the southern most tip of the gaza strip. there is nowhere left for them to go. and the rest of the gaza strip is damaged or destroyed. this is something that cannot happen and the medical system has already collapsed. the three hospitals that are in rafah are already 300 to 400% over capacity. i cannot imagine what would happen if tanks and ground troops started rolling in. >> what is it like for you? you're a palestinian-american, you're a physician. you went back to gaza to help. but now you're back here, sitting in a suit, at this desk, going to the u.n. what was it like for you emotionally, for other medical personnel emotionally that go there and then leave others behind? >> it is difficult. there is a tremendous amount of
10:24 am
survivors' guilt. i wish i never left the hospital. i wish i was still there with my palestinian co-workers treating the patients. but now that i'm here, i have to live with that and i have to try to advocate on behalf of what they're going through. these are some of the most incredible people i've ever met. they do so much with so little. they're heroes in every sense of the word. so it is important for me to go to the united nations and to tell them there needs to be a cease-fire. and not just that, not just about getting the bombs to stop dropping. there needs to be aid entering into the gaza strip, food, water, blankets, medicines, we need to get the people what they need. the ipc report that came out and said that famine is imminent, that one in three kids in the gaza strip are acutely malnourished in the north, we have to do something about that and it has to happen in the next couple of hours or days, not weeks. there is no time. i'm trying to communicate the emergency. >> this is emergent. doctor, thank you so much for the work you do and giving us the time today. best of luck today.

10:30 am
former president's trade adviser, reported to a miami jail today, to begin serving a four-month sentence for contempt of congress, for defying a subpoena from the january 6th committee. he's the first trump administration official to be sentenced in connection with the attempt to overturn trump's 2020 election loss before turning himself in, navarro lashed out. >> every person who has taken me on this road to that prison is a freaking democrat and a trump hater. it starts with house speaker nancy pelosi, who forms the j-6 committee. i'm pissed. that's what i'm feeling right now. i'm also afraid of only one thing. i'm afraid for this country because this, what they're doing, should have a chilling effect on every american regardless of their party. if they come for me, they can come for you. >> nbc's ryan reilly is following this story for us. this is coming after the supreme
10:31 am
court actually rejected navarro's final bid, final try to stay out of prison. what more do we know? >> yeah, you know, i think the best way to think about this is peter navarro seems to think asserting executive privilege a lot in the same way that michael scott declared bankruptcy in the office. you know that clip in the office, where he says i declare bankruptcy out loud and he thinks that's the magic word. he thinks he can say these magic words, executive privilege, he can blow off the january 6th committee. even today when being questioned, to be clear, by reporters in the parking lot of a strip mall with a papa john's in it, he can't assert it, and donald trump is not currently the executive. his communications with donald trump right now are not in any way, shape or form subject to questions of executive privilege, despite his claims otherwise. that's why the supreme court
10:32 am
ultimately rejected this sort of last minute appeal for him to get out of his four-month jail sentence. >> ryan reilly, throwback to the office, got to love it. thank you. on capitol hill, everybody, a tentative deal has been reached, tentative key here, that could avoid a government shutdown. we have two sources familiar with the talks telling nbc news that a bipartisan agreement has resolved the biggest sticking point in the negotiations, the homeland security portion of the funding bill. if the deal holds, it would fund the government for the rest of the fiscal year. and then put an end to a seemingly never-ending series of stopgap crs, continuing resolutions. want to bring in ali vitali who is on capitol hill for us with more on this. the president has already said that he's going to sign this bill. the problem is negotiators, they haven't crossed the finish line yet. what still needs to be done? >> yeah, because a tentative deal means that there is a deal, but we haven't seen the text of it yet. it is important to note there
10:33 am
has been a deal made on the department of homeland security funding piece of this, that was one of the key holdups that dragged this process out. now they are on the clock to get this done by friday at midnight when the government would otherwise partially shut down. now, there is the possibility that they could let this bleed into the weekend a little bit. that's not the biggest deal. but, of course, the goal is to be able to avert that entirely. the problem is, again, we haven't seen the text yet and until we see the text, then lawmakers are really starting the clock of being able to read it and then subsequently vote for it. of course, we know the house is going to go first, the senate will then pick it up, it is looking like the earliest that could happen is friday, but, again, we're watching for the procedural way that they actually end up doing this. there are different mechanisms that they can do it that could speed up the process a little bit, yasmin. all of that is going to be the name of the game when you think about actually averting this crisis. i also think that worth considering here is they have been doing this for months, you're right, that finally funding the government for the
10:34 am
full fiscal year will sort of allow people to breathe a sigh of relief up here on capitol hill. but just a reminder of how late in the game in terms of a fiscal calendar we are for the process to be happening, there are cabinet members coming up to the hill this week, to defend their 2025 budget. they like to do things in advance on the budgeting side of this. again, the fact they're still doing stuff in the fiscal 2024 calendar, just tells you how gummed up and messy this entire process has been up here on capitol hill. >> always right up until the deadline. and every minute counts and then some. ali vitali, thank you. the biden camp is launching a new effort to reach a key democratic voter base. that poll suggests could be swaying towards donald trump. biden campaign co-chair congresswoman veronica escobar joins me next. we'll be right back. sswoman verr joins me next. we'll be right back. like carpal tunnel syndrome, shortness of breath, and irregular heartbeat

>> between joe biden. >> or donald trump. only one choice is right. >> and the difference between them is your vote. >> i'm joe biden and i approve this message. >> later today, the president is going to kick off latinos con biden in arizona. i want to bring in democratic congresswoman veronica escobar, co-chair of biden's re-election campaign. thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. >> a pleasure. >> talk us through the importance of latinos con biden and what you're looking to achieve. >> thanks so much for having me on to talk about this exciting aspect of the campaign. we want to make sure that latinos understand how important this election is, and how important their vote is. latinos, as you know, are a growing, diverse population. in my community, i represent a community that is 85% latino. and we share many of the same
10:41 am
concerns every other american shares about an economy, about our freedom to marry who we love, our freedom to the ballot box, our freedom for our reproductive futures. and so, we want to make sure that latinos feel heard, and listened to, but that they understand we need them and they are an important component of president biden's vice president kamala harris' road to victory in november. >> i want to talk about bridging a gap and how you're expecting to do that. because you're looking at -- if we look at exit polls from 2020, biden led by 33 percentage points, 65-32. the latest poll has donald trump in a lead with hispanic voters 46-40. is that concerning to the biden camp right now? >> you know, i personally don't put a whole lot of stock in polling. what is important to me, and
10:42 am
what's important to the campaign is that we get in front of those voters, that we knock on those doors, that we have one on one conversations in communities, that we help people understand the work that president biden and vice president harris have done to reduce the costs of healthcare, to -- for student loan forgiveness, for growing jobs in america and every community. and understand what is at stake with donald trump and where he wants to take this country and the dangers that exist with that. and so what we're not going to be focused on polling. we know this election is going to be very, very close, every vote is going to count. every state is important to us. so we're going to stay focused not on the polling, but on talking directly to the voters. >> what is the major issue you think that is going to drive hispanic latino voters to the polls? i ask this because as i played that ad before we came to you, one issue that stuck out to me being talked about when i referred to your abuelo is
10:43 am
prescription drug prices. >> latinos want two things. they want an economy that works for us. and also an opportunity for great paying jobs and those are the two areas where president biden and vice president harris lead head and shoulders over donald trump. we know that when donald trump left office, latinos faced a 47 now leading in terms of the unemployment numbers, but also in salary growth. our families need access to good affordable healthcare, that's where we're focused as democrats and where the president is focused. donald trump wants to take healthcare away. he's talked about eliminating obama care. for the state of the union address, i had an el pasoen, a
10:44 am
wonderful gentleman, one might have constituents, whose family really has benefitted from the $35 insulin cap. those -- that kind of attention, that kind of policy is important to latinos, because it helps us grow our incomes, it helps us save money and it helps build prosperity. there is only one candidate on the ticket for president that will do that and that's president joe biden. >> what about, as i mention the, bridging the gap, bridging the gap between male latino voters versus female latino voters. we saw in 2020, there was more support, it seemed, from male latino voters for dounld donald and getting specific to the issues that cater to them. >> we have to do that. and that's why the on the ground work, talking directly to voters, including those voters that we might have lost or that might be slipping, we know we
10:45 am
can get them back. we know that if we put the time and energy and resources into reaching out to latino voters, men and women, and sometimes the different priorities that each group has, that we can reach them and bring them back into the coalition that we need in order to get to victory. and i do believe that the closer we get to election day, the more we will see many of these constituencies coming home. when you think about the way that donald trump talks about immigrants, for example, saying that immigrants poisoned the blood of america, saying this past weekend that immigrants are not human, his dehumanizing, vile language should offend all of us. but that's not enough. we can't just rely on pointing out to american voters how hateful former president donald
10:46 am
trump is when it comes to latinos. we have got to show what we're for. we got to show what we have done and what we will do and that's why latinos con biden is a very exciting component of the campaign, and i think we're going to see great gains throughout the next few months as we continue to talk to voters. >> congresswoman, thank you. appreciate it. >> thank you. so moments ago, arizona senate candidate and staunch donald trump supporter cary lake cast her ballot in the state's presidential primary. vaughn hillyard outside the polling station in phoenix and just spoke to her. what did you hear? >> reporter: she just went in and cast her ballot for donald trump. that is the only election there on the ballot here in the state of arizona today. of course, she is going to be running, we expect in november, alongside of him. her primary in the state is four months from now. she is running against mark lamb, though in polling she has a significant lead yet still
10:47 am
plenty of time to be had. donald trump in 2020 lost the state by just over 11,000 votes. in 2022, in her run for governor, she lost by just over 10,000 votes. and i put the question to her, particularly around the likes of doug ducey, karen taylor robison and the mccains who she criticized in her 2022 race, where she stands with her relationship now. take a listen. >> there has been a lot of talk about you extending olive branchs to some conservatives here in the state who you had spurned previously. my question to you is do you regret any of your past statements about republicans in this state? >> you know what, we're all human. we make mistakes occasionally. i do as well. i'm not perfect. i never want to hurt anyone's feelings. but, you know, politics is a rough and tumble game and sometimes things are said. but right now we have a lot of issues facing our country and we need to come together as americans to solve these problems. and i think we will. i know we are. i'm seeing it every day.
10:48 am
i'm all over the state. i'm all over the country and people say, thank you for being a fighter, fighting for our right, fighting for security, and here in arizona, giing the same exact response. any other questions? >> arizona will be critical towards republicans being able to take back the u.s. senate here. she is now looking like she's going to be a one on one matchup with democratic congressman ruben gallego who has the senate nomination all but wrapped up in the state. the second question i put to her, to voters here, including independents and republicans, who did not vote for her in 2022, for governor, what would she tell them? has she changed in the year of 2024 and she stopped for a moment and told me, no, i have not changed. she said if it were not for what -- to paraphrase, a rigged election in 2022, she would be governor here now, which gets at the heart of some republicans who i talked to who are still concerned whether she is best positioned here to win a general election, knowing that she is
10:49 am
still not able to hold and acknowledge she lost the 2022 election. >> vaughn hillyard, always at the right place at the right time. thank you. coming up next, a new york judge dealing a major blow to several social media giants. could the platforms be found liable for radicalizing a mass shooter? radicalizing a mass shooter? $2 footlong churro. sometimes the sidekick is the main event. you would say that. every epic footlong deserves the perfect sidekick.

10:51 am
(bridget) with thyroid eye disease i hid from the camera. if you think about it. and i wanted to hide from the world. for years, i thought my t.e.d. was beyond help... but then i asked my doctor about tepezza. (vo) tepezza is the only medicine that treats t.e.d. at the source not just the symptoms. in a clinical study more than 8 out of 10 patients taking tepezza had less eye bulging. tepezza is an infusion and may cause infusion reactions. tell your doctor right away if you experience high blood pressure, fast heartbeat, shortness of breath or muscle pain. before treatment, tell your doctor if you have diabetes, ibd, or are pregnant, or planning to become pregnant. tepezza may raise blood sugar and may worsen ibd. tepezza may cause severe hearing problems which may be permanent.
10:52 am
(bridget) now, i'm ready to be seen again. (vo) visit mytepezza.com to find a ted eye specialist and to see bridget's before and after photos. welcome back chblt a new york judge just e ruling that social media sites including reddit, youtube, they can be sued for enabling a white supremacist to kill at a grocery store in buffalo, new york. the judge says 25 plaintiffs could try to move the platforms were designed to addict and radicalize users and gave the buffalo shooter knowledge he needed. if they win, this would be the first time social media sites
10:53 am
could be held liable for a mass shooting. want to bring in deputy chief former federal prosecutor to talk more about this. i kind of wonder what precedent this sets because in a lot of the mass shooting incidents in which we have covered, many of these shooters have been radicalized online. >> so, this is in a very early stage. what the court has said here is i'm not going to dismiss because the plaintiff's complaint specifically pleads a cause of action here. it's too early, essentially, the judge saying it's too early as a matter of law to say that this litigation cannot proceed. if it were to be successful, it would absolutely set a new precedent. you have a novel legal approach here that's taken by these plaintiffs where they're not focused so much on the content as the product design. they're saying the product design of these platforms and
10:54 am
that it's addictive to young users. it directs them to platforms that promotes white replacement theory and really gives them the knowledge and tools to effectuate a shooting. that those are choices that are part of the product design and that's really at issue. this is not, which the defendants are saying, just a message for them. we're not just posting content. these algorithms are making choices designed to radicalize the users and have them be more engaged with the platform. so it is a novel legal theory. we'll see if it gets past continued stages of litigation. >> if it moves forward, just say, how do you make the connection here that a crime like a mass shooting is connected to these online user platforms so that they are then
10:55 am
subsequently found liable? that is an uphill battle. >> absolutely. and so that's going to be a very fact specific analysis. so in this particular case, you've got the gunman's own words where he said i was influenced by social media to do this. and this is how i learned from these message chats that i was involved in. this is how i learned how to do this. and what white replacement theory was. so these plaintiffs are surely going to be focusing a lot on what the gunman has said and what the gunman was doing online on these various platforms leading up to the shooting. so again, it's going to be a fact specific analysis and then you have these social media companies that are again going to say look, we were not active in this. in fact, we monitor for hate speech and we're protected from liability by various laws, as well as the first amendment.
10:56 am
as you said, this is an uphill battle but expect fact specific approach. >> thank you. in our next hour, a race against to clock to get americans out of gang ridden haiti. katy tur picks it up after this. katy tur picks it up after this.
